Chapter 109
The first wave of arrows has fallen.Then, almost without a pause, the second wave fell.The buzzing sound of arrows flying through the air made people's eardrums hurt.

Heavy arrows falling from high places are very powerful.Chen Ran stood on the right side of Guo Ning, responsible for holding a large wooden board.More than a dozen arrows have been deeply stuck on the wooden board.Every time the arrow fell, his hands holding the plank would vibrate violently.

The temporarily removed carriage boards are not exquisite, and the boards are somewhat uneven in thickness.A heavy arrow pierced his palm directly through the weak point, and the cluster of arrows protruded several inches long.Blood continued to flow down his forearm, but Chen Ran's movements and footsteps were not affected in the slightest, and the board was not even slightly skewed.

The Mongolian knights continued to shoot wildly, which is what they are best at and what they rely on most at critical moments.

In the shortest possible time, thousands of heavy arrows were thrown over.Even if the soldiers held up their wooden shields, they couldn't stop them completely. The jingling sound of arrows colliding with metal armor leaves was continuous. Many soldiers had arrows stuck in their helmets, shoulder armor, and chests, following their actions. Shake and shake.

There were also a few soldiers who were seriously injured and fell to the ground immediately, blood gurgling from under their bodies, staining a large area of ​​grass.

"Wait a minute! Go ten steps forward and shoot back!"

"Five steps forward!"

Among the armored soldiers advancing side by side with Guo Ning, many had outstanding marksmanship.Although Guo Ning himself can't shoot through Yang with a hundred steps, he can shoot birds and animals within dozens of steps, and he can hit five or six out of ten, which is considered a good hand.

However, in terms of shooting skills, no matter how elite Han soldiers are, they are always inferior to the Mongols.

The harsh environment on the grasslands determines that the Mongols live as nomads; the nomadic life of living by water and grass determines that fighting is the daily life of every tribe, and riding and archery are part of life for them. Like eating, drinking and breathing, they are both indispensable life guarantees.

On the contrary, most of the garrison soldiers deployed by the Kingdom of Jin in northern Xinjiang were originally farmers, and at most they were native soldiers who had received basic training.After they arrived in northern Xinjiang, how long would it take them to train to keep pace with the Mongols who usually honed their riding and shooting skills?

No matter how hard you try or how talented you are, it's hard to do.

Back then on Yehu Ridge, there were Tie Futu soldiers in the army.However, when everyone was fighting with the Mongolian army, they saw with their own eyes that there were even Mongolian knights on the battlefield who dared to rush their horses forward, within twenty or thirty paces, directly shot the soldiers in the face with arrows, and killed them with one blow.Archery has reached such a level, it is really terrifying.

Fortunately, at this time, the arrows of the Mongolian army were not accurate.

After losing the advantages of horses moving at high speed and retreating quickly, the Mongols are only flesh and blood after all.Once forced close by groups of armored soldiers, the Mongolian Qingqi that was defeated earlier is a role model!
Facing the approaching enemies, the Mongols were visibly impatient. They chose a very laborious projectile with a relatively low hit rate, and they started shooting at a distance of about a hundred steps.This is usually the practice when large armies are fighting, and the main purpose is to harass the enemy's line or hinder the enemy's advance, not to kill.

It's a pity that it can't be stopped.

Iron Buddha soldiers continue to advance.

At a distance of eighty steps, they began to shoot back; at a distance of sixty steps, they dropped the plank and drew their bows again and again; at a distance of forty steps, the hit rates of both sides had increased significantly.Several people around Guo Ning were shot in the neck by arrows, and they bleed and rolled to death as they screamed in pain.

Many more people were hit by arrows, but were not seriously injured.

Guo Ning was covered in armor and was pierced with more than a dozen arrows. At first glance, he looked like a hedgehog with bristling hair.He had to find time to draw his knife and cut off the arrow shafts one by one, otherwise his actions would be affected.The soldiers surrounded by Guo Ning were also brave and continued to move forward.

The scorching sun in the sky is like a fire, and Guo Ning's fighting spirit is also burning like a raging fire, which will never be extinguished.

The wound on his body was in pain, and the violent movement tore open the wound, and warm blood was already flowing out.He was breathing heavily, but he didn't feel tired.

Whenever he took a big breath, the blood-smelling air was poured into his lungs, giving him a wild joy.That smell reminded him that in this cruel world where man and beast fight and fight, how can there be room for calm maneuvering?All ideas, all efforts, put into practice, there are only four words of life and death!

He saw the Mongol in front of him fell down by an arrow, and saw panic appearing on several ferocious faces like wild beasts.He heard the Mongols shouting repeatedly.After so many years in the frontier, although he couldn't speak it, he could understand a few words of Mongolian and knew that they were shouting to form a formation.Some people shouted to leave the war horse alone and gather together quickly.

late!

Riding skills are strong in the Mongolian army.Archery is also strong in the Mongolian army.But when it comes to foot combat, when it comes to fighting in battle, Guo Ning believes in the results of several months of training in the Feijunhe camp.Today is the time to test, the time to kill the enemy!
Guo Ning sideways avoided a Mongolian who was flying towards him, and then swung the iron bone, hitting the back of the man's head from top to bottom.There was only a muffled sound, and the entire iron plate at the back of the iron helmet was suddenly dented.The Mongolian fell heavily to the ground, his hands and feet twitched twice.

Guo Ning didn't take a second look and strode forward.

A short and stocky Mongolian in excellent armor rushed forward diagonally, stabbing with a long spear.This guy is an experienced fighter, with a strong wind on the tip of his spear, he is coming with a fierce and vicious force.

But Guo Ning not only did not dodge, but instead took the opportunity to take another step forward.The spear passed by Guo Ning's ribs, and was clamped by Guo Ning's arms.The enemy snatched it twice, and felt as if a gnat was shaking the tree, but the spear did not move at all.

He hastily let go of the hands holding the gun, and stepped back quickly. Guo Ning raised his hand, and Tie Guduo arrived, just like smashing a watermelon with a stone, smashing the enemy's eyes and facial features into pieces, and the whole face sank into the skull. However, blood and brains gushed out, splashing Guo Ning all over his body.

Following the Mongolian soldier came a hundred households in ring armor.Seeing that Guo Ning came fiercely, he swung his knife again and again, yelling loudly, calling for his companions behind to gather and fight.

Guo Ning handed Tie Guduo to his left hand, and with his right hand, he held the long spear clamped by his side, and threw it vigorously.The barrel of the gun whined with a strong wind, but it was not very accurate, and the Mongolian hundred households dodged it with a dodge.

Unexpectedly, Chen Ran followed closely, rushed forward suddenly, and stabbed him in the throat.

The Baihu held the gun barrel with both hands, stared wide-eyed, stuck out his tongue, and tried his best not to fall.Chen Ran kicked him over and stood beside Guo Ning.

In an instant, Guo Ning advanced dozens of steps.In front of him, on the left and right, there were messy horses, and the dark figure obscured the situation further away.I only saw countless wolf-like enemies yelling wildly and rushing towards them.

Guo Ning turned around to see that Ni Yi was holding up the red military flag and quickly catching up.The surrounding soldiers lined up in rows, standing side by side. Dozens of hundreds of long spears and iron spears protruded densely, like a steel forest, or like some kind of monster crawling and accumulating strength, protruding sharp claws.

He laughed, and said casually: "Let Li Erlang kill these messy people, and we will move on."

A hundred steps behind him, Li Ting yelled and roared, "Follow! Follow!"

A hundred paces behind Li Ting, Han Xuan watched as the Mongolian army's light cavalry surrounded them. There were nearly a thousand cavalry.These cavalry bypassed the muddy land and galloped over from both sides, the speed of their horses reaching the limit.

When they approached rapidly, the sound was terrifying.It reminded Han Xuan of the bloody mist on the Yehuling battlefield, and how he was frightened when he saw the Mongolian army's light cavalry outflanking him.

He straightened his back, looked around contemptuously, and then sped up his pace a little: "Keep moving forward, don't be thrown away by Li Erlang."
